The Night of Christmas


It's the night of Christmas
I didn't get a thing
The family all forgot me
No carols did they sing
I didn't get a present
Just a bunch of air
They went on with their living
I guess they just don't care

Although I blessed them richly
I gave them a new home
I healed them in their sickness
I heard them when they moaned
I never left them hungry
I gave them food to eat
Provided them with clothing
The shoes upon their feet

I wonder if they know me
How much I love them so
I came to earth to save them
I wish they'd come to know
That if they would invite me
Into all their hearts
That is when they'd notice
How blessed they truly are

It's the night of Christmas
The celebration ends
The presents have been opened
They're ready for a rest
Tomorrow is a new day
They get on with their lives
It's sad that they've forgotten
Their savior Jesus Christ
